ANCIENT WARFARE: Volume 9.6

Theme: The Aftermath of Battle

When we think about warfare in the ancient world, the first thing that probably pops into mind are images of men, clad in armor, fighting each other. Battle usually draws a lot of attention, and there have been many heated discussions about the nature and mechanics of combat. By comparison, there is often less interest in what happens after battle has been decided and the dust has settled. But the aftermath of conflict is no less interesting than the fight itself, as this issue of Ancient Warfare magazine will demonstrate.
